Hey guys, I have recently bought a Sprinter Hatch this past weekend and hope to restore it and have a great daily driver
I couldn't find any introduction forum so I hope this is the right place for this
Can someone give me a very very general direction around the forum?
I will probably be on here asking a lot of you seasoned 86 veterans for tips and advice regularly
My name is Kevin and I hope to get to meet you guys

Re: Hey new member here!
haha well here's my new Sprinter
bought it with loads of interior trim pieces (minus all trunk and hatch parts)
First goal is to get the interior put together. I'll be ripping up the the old carpet and placing in a new one
I also plan to clean most of the trim and repaint them.
Rear seats will be reupholstered and I'm just going to replace the front seats all together
in terms of performance, that will wait a bit. Suspension and chassis stuff is first in terms of upgrading. Will get some street coilovers, strut bars, sway bars, etc
Engine is a 4ac but it runs strong for now so no reason to swap it yet. If I do swap it'll be for a 4AGZE or 20V that'll be lightly tuned
I don't plan on hooning this as it'll be a daily for awhile
exterior will be last on the list unless I lose my mind which typically happens
I am trying to sort out upgrading the rear drums to disc. Im looking for a celica-supra assembly but have no luck at the local JYs or on ebay. Any one know a good place too look?

There shouldn't be a day that goes by where you don't learn something new.
